Every year I've seen a challenge similar to this one but I haven't found one yet for 2018 so I thought I'd start one myself. I've always wanted to try a year-long challenge.

The 2018 Full Year Challenge runs for an entire year - Jan 1 to Dec 31. To make it easier for you, the challenge will be broken down into 8 mini challenges as follows (copied this from last year's challenge, hope that's okay):

Challenge 1: New Years Day to Valentine’s Day (January 1st to February 14th)
Challenge 2: Valentine’s Day to April Fools Day (February 14th to April 1st)
Challenge 3: April Fools Day to Mother's Day (April 1st to May 13th)
Challenge 4: Mother's Day to Independence Day (May 13th to July 4th)
Challenge 5: Independence Day to Labor Day (July 4th to September 3rd)
Challenge 6: Labor Day to Columbus Day (September 3rd to October 8th)
Challenge 7: Columbus Day to Thanksgiving Day (October 8th to November 22rd)
Challenge 8: Thanksgiving Day to New Years Eve (November 22rd to December 31st)

Weigh-in will be once a week, any day you choose. To join the challenge, copy the form below into a new post and then edit it throughout the challenge.

You can post as much as you need in order to keep yourself motivated and to check up on others. I'm shy so I tend not to post very often but you are welcome to post every day if you want.

Good luck, work hard and have fun! We can do this!!

1/1: 193.0 lbs
1/8: 192.2 lbs (-0.6 lbs)
1/15: 192.0 lbs (-02. lbs, 9.0 lbs to go) - How in the heck did I lose weight this week!? I ate horribly all week, went out to eat (onion rings, cheese curds, bbq pork) on Saturday, then last night for the MN-NO game, I had BBQ wings, mozzy sticks, cookies and chocolate covered peanuts. Maybe it's because my heart rate was in fat burning mode for 3 hours - my Fitbit shows I just about had a heart attack during the last 5 min of the game. LOL!

2/12:Valentine's Day:

Edit 02/12: I did not forget about this challenge. First of all, found out I'm moving at the beginning of March so I've been super busy with everything relating to that. Then I accidentally left my laptop at a relative's house - 5 hour drive one-way. I was NOT driving that far to go get it. I was forced to use my dinosaur backup computer for a week - slow as molasses. I finally got my laptop back the day before we left for vacation. Needless to say, I haven't been sticking to my diet - a lot of stress eating. Pretty sure I've gained 5 lbs or more just in the past week. I'll start a new thread for the 2nd challenge of the year and I'll get back to my diet as soon as I get back from our trip (currently typing this in a hotel room). I'll probably have a lot of vacation gain I'll need to re-lose.

Oh I like that one. I'm new to the forum and thought I might give it a go and hop on this all-year-train until I may reach my goal weight and hop off (or take another round, hopefully not).
Hope it's ok if I keep it as an ongoing post for more than just one of the challenges, keeping lists motivates me a lot
